This year’s wedding is coming up soon.
Radhika Merchant, the youngest child of Asia’s richest man, and Anant Ambani will marry at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai on July 12. Guests will enjoy a weekend of celebrations, including an event on July 13 and a reception on July 14.
The couple’s wedding became a hot topic in March when videos and photos from a lavish pre-wedding celebration hosted by the Ambani family were released on social media. Mukesh Ambani, head of the Ambani family and chairman of Reliance Industries, has a net worth of $123.4 billion. His wife, Nita Ambani, is a philanthropist and chairperson of the Reliance Foundation.
Their pre-wedding celebrations have been lavish, including hiring Rihanna for a private performance in March, and their most recent event, a sangeet ceremony in Mumbai on Friday, was no exception.
Anant and Radhika hosted a traditional music extravaganza to bring the couple’s families together. The couple appeared in outfits designed by Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.

As expected, the Ambanis upped the ante and brought along Justin Bieber. Paparazzi snapped photos of the singer arriving in Mumbai on Friday, and he shared several pictures from the event on his Instagram account on Saturday.
He was seen in a few pictures with Merchant and Anant.
Videos of Bieber singing songs such as “Sorry” at the party have been garnering attention on Twitter and TikTok, as well as on the official account of French media outlet Le Parisien.
A representative for Bieber did not respond to Business Insider’s request for comment.
The event was a star-studded affair.
